Criminal Cases in the Henry County Superior Court
A criminal case from Hampton is filed in the Henry County Superior Court or the State Court and Magistrate Court, which take misdemeanors and traffic cases in the State Court where the county has one, otherwise in the Probate Court; small claims and warrants in the Magistrate Court, and the court file, kept by the Clerk of Superior Court, is the record of it that the public may see.

Georgia has no single public index of every trial court case; each court's records are looked up through that court.
The Georgia Criminal History and Your Own Copy
Georgia is one of the states that lets anyone look up another person's statewide criminal history: Georgia Felon Search lets anyone check felony convictions online by name, through the Georgia Crime Information Center. The result is the repository record, what agencies reported to the state, which is wider than one county's court index but can lag it.
To see your own record, the route is a fingerprint-based request through Georgia Applicant Processing Services. The state page SearchSystems verified for it is at gbi.georgia.gov/services/obtaining-criminal-history-record-informat....
